Arrangement is a bit of a myth, though — this needs a few more elements to add some detail and progress to the tune, 'cos that piano loop is in for WAY too long throughout the tune (I think there are only 16 bars of the whole thing that <i>don't</i> feature that loop). A few exceptions exist, but by and large no one element of the tune (besides the drums) should play such a consistent part in a track IMO.<br><br> More percussion, more sub... just MORE.
